One night I had to look at a page from the Bible for three minutes and then report everything I could remember. "Now, Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance, and that's all I remember, Ma," I said, And after seeing my mother's disappointed face once again, something inside of me began to die. I hated the tests, the raised hopes, and failed expectations. Before going to bed that night, I looked in the mirror above the bathroom sink, and when I saw only my face staring back-and that it would always be this ordinary face-I began to cry. Such a sad, ugly girl! I made high-pitched noises like a crazed animal, trying to scratch out the face in the mirror. And then I saw what seemed to be the prodigy side of me because I had never seen that face before. I looked at my reflection, blinking so I could see more clearly. The girl staring back at me was angry, powerful. This girl and I were the same. I had new thoughts, willful thoughts, or rather thoughts filled with lots of won'ts. I won't let her change me, promised myself. I won't be what I'm not. -Excerpted from "Two kinds" in The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan
